Sound of Cinema Sunday

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting film music to complement your morning, whether you’re resting after a busy week, or busy planning for the week ahead.

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting film music to complement your morning.

In a special edition of Sunday Morning, Sarah joins Radio 3’s all-day celebration of music in film ahead of the 96th Academy Awards ceremony. Sarah shares some of her favourite film music, delving into familiar classics and hidden gems offering a truly cinematic soundtrack to your morning.

This morning Sarah revisits music from another world which won the Oscar for best Original Score almost forty years ago, and she delights in British film music from Malcolm Arnold. There’s also an operatic highlight inspired by Dustin Hoffman’s β€Quartetβ€.

The morning also brings exotic sounds from Joe Hisaishi and Jung Jaeil, and memories of the Golden Age of British cinema with music from Doreen Carwithen.

Plus, there’s music written for silent film from both Charlie Chaplin and Camille Saint-Saens...
